The pattern

Look at the list and a theme jumps out: relationships and parenting show up again and again. Cooper announced in May that she is expecting her first child, and on a June episode she talked about her pregnancy, per SiriusXM. People reported in August that she told them, “What’s surprised me most is how much of the real experience still doesn’t get talked about.”

Episode lengths range from about 44 minutes for the motherhood episode to more than an hour for the Housewives interview, according to Apple’s listing.
